How to Counter Death Prophet

Death Prophet silences an area with Silence, drains a target with Spirit Siphon and sends spirits with Exorcism that heal her for part of the damage they deal. Exorcism pierces spell immunity and its spirit damage ignores damage block, while Silence, Spirit Siphon and Crypt Swarm are blocked by it. Healing reduction cuts the heal she receives when Exorcism ends.

Counter items

  • Black King BarAvatar blocks Silence, Spirit Siphon and Crypt Swarm, though Exorcism still hits.
  • Spirit VesselSoul Release cuts the heal Exorcism gives Death Prophet when it ends.
  • Linken's SphereSpellblock stops one Spirit Siphon, though Crypt Swarm ignores it.
